Saul heard a funny joke and he wants to tell his friend Peter who works in the next building over. He knows the joke is not appropriate for the workplace but he will send the joke via e-mail and tell Peter to delete the email after he reads it. No one will ever know, right?

Wrong, no one else has access to their emails so they don’t even need to delete the message for it to stay hidden.

Wrong, electronic communications are forever, you can’t just delete a company email to erase it completely from company files.
